CK0

Edge
The system clock input. All the SDRAM inputs are sampled on the rising edge of the
clock.
Activates the CK0 signal when high and deactivates the CK0 signal when low. By deacti-
vating the clock, CKE0 low initiates the Power Down mode, the Suspend mode, or the
Self Refresh mode.
Chip selects enable the command decoders, when low, in the assorted chips and disable
the command decoder when high. When the command decoder is disabled, new com-
mands are ignored but previous operations continue. Each of the chip selects controls
one of the physical DIMM banks. S0 enables the lower deck of each stacked SDRAM
and S1 enables the upper deck.
Active Lowoperation to be executed by the SDRAM.
During a Bank Activate command cycle, A0-A10/AP defines the row address (RA0-
RA10) when sampled at the rising clock edge.
During a Read or Write command cycle, A0-A9 defines the column address (CA0-CA9)
when sampled at the rising clock edge. In addition to the column address, A10/AP is
used to invoke Autoprecharge operation at the end of the Burst Read or Write cycle. If
A10/AP is high, autoprecharge is selected and A11/BS defines the bank to be pre-
charged (low=bank A, high=bank B). If A10/AP is low, autoprecharge is disabled.
During a Precharge command cycle, A10/AP is used in conjunction with A11/BS to con-
trol which bank(s) to precharge. If A10/AP is high, both bank A and bank B will be pre-
charged regardless of the state of A11/BS. If A10/AP is low, then A11/BS is used to
define which bank to precharge.

DQM
Input
Pulse
Mask
Active
High
The Data Input/Output mask places the DQ buffers in a high-impedance state when sam-
pled high. In Read mode, DQM has a latency of three clock cycles and controls the out-
put buffers like an output enable. In Write mode, DQM has a latency of one and operates
as a word mask by allowing input data to be written if it is low but blocking the Write oper-
ation if it is high.
